SYNLawn® Santa Cruz Installation Instructions

Following these steps to install your SYNLawn Santa Cruz artificial grass, will give you a beautiful, green and worry-free lawn for years to come.

Before installing SYNLawn Santa Cruz you will need the proper tools for the job. Please see the list of tools above.

Prepare the base

Most outdoor applications require preparation of an aggregate base to allow proper water drainage. Simply clear the surface where your SYNLawn Santa Cruz will be placed, removing any unwanted grass and roots.

Once clear, add a two to four-inch layer of crushed aggregate until achieving the desired shape and contour. Work the aggregate with a rake and hand tamp until the surface is compact and smooth.

Trim to size

With the base ready, position your SYNLawn Santa Cruz and trim to shape. If using more than one roll of SYNLawn Santa Cruz, make sure the “grain” of the grass fibers point in the same direction.

Glue together seams

To seam SYNLawn Santa Cruz together, align two pieces of SYNLawn Santa Cruz edge-to-edge. Fold back the edges to lay SYNLawn Santa Cruz seaming cloth the length of the seam.

Secure in place

Secure the seaming cloth in place. Apply seaming adhesive to the cloth, spreading to a consistent thickness. After a few minutes, slowly ease the two edges back together, checking the fit as you go.

To secure your SYNLawn Santa Cruz, use five to six-inch galvanized nails or landscape anchor pins around the perimeter and where necessary to keep your SYNLawn Santa Cruz flat.

Groom your grass

Finally. Use a landscape rake or broom to brush the fibers up and rinse with a garden hose. Periodic brushing and rinsing will keep your SYNLawn Santa Cruz looking fresh, natural and beautiful for years to come.
